Converting an Excel document and starting a review

In the prior section, you saw how easy it is to create a PDF file from a Microsoft Office application—PowerPoint—and email it to friends or colleagues without ever leaving your Microsoft Office application. In this section, you'll create a PDF file from an Excel document and start a formal review process in which the PDF file is emailed to selected reviewers. In addition to managing the email process, the Acrobat email review process also offers powerful file management and comment management tools to facilitate the review.

If you don't have Excel installed on your system, you can use the Convert to AdobePDFand Send for Review button in Word to convert and start an email review of the Our_Wines.doc file. Open Our_Wines.doc in Word, and go directly to the “Checking the conversion settings” section later in this lesson.
